Testimony of the Damned: A Forbidden Paranormal Romance (Emissary of the Devil Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 133 ratings

The fate of the world hinges on an ambitious demon and the one woman he can't resist.

For hundreds of years, Brax has worked his way up the demonic ranks to become a crowned prince of Hell. Now, with only one final task left in his quest, the crown is within reach. When he's assigned to corrupt and collect the soul of seventeen-year-old beauty Maggie Westbrook, he's sure victory is his. But Fate has other plans.

Maggie is no ordinary woman. Part angel, she possesses a pure soul, one which is the key to starting the apocalypse. . . And to stealing Brax's heart. As irresistible passion flares between them, Brax is caught between his duty and his desire. And with another demon determined to take Maggie's soul, Brax must decide both their fates—fulfill his destiny and take the crown or risk everything to save the girl.

Trigger warning: Testimony of the Damned is a dark tale containing scenarios that may cause discomfort. Reader discretion advised. Contains cliffhanger.

Sexy Paranomal Romance! 💖💖💖💖
Got this book for honest review. I love it! It was delight to read. I love read books about paranormal story of any kind. Abraxes is evil in every type you could imagine​. Until he met Maggie a very sweet angel she is. She showed him love, happiness, laugh, and ect. She showed him good. He wasn't think bad anymore. Happy that he was happy. This story had me off my feet. Every page, every chapter I was reading I wanted more and more. It had me on a Rollercoaster. I finish this awesome read in 2 days only. It was so good that I couldn't put it down for one minute. If I did I felt like am missing something. It had right into the book. I felt like i was in the story myself. If only I was able to jump right into it. I love me some sexy paranormal romance. I highly recommend everybody read this book. IF you love paranormal story this is right there for you. I can't wait for her next book. Bring it on! 💖💖💖💖

    I'm reeling from this book! Wow, what a fascinating twist on angels and demons, paranormal romance, and life vs. death. Would you sacrifice everything for love? Even your soul?

    Brax is a demon who lives a life of corruption and sin. He loves what he does, embraces who he is, and doesn't apologize for it. Maggie isn't your average girl. She's light where Brax is dark. When the two meet it's one explosive and powerful story.

    There's a lot of meat to this story and that's what I love. Told exclusively from Brax's pov we're given a brilliant and descriptive look at a demon's "life". Secondary characters are just as deep and well-written as the MC. So many twists and turns and surprises. I gobbled up this story and oh, do I want more! I have the next book on my Kindle and I'll be reading it to find out what happens from Maggie's pov.

    A breathtaking and heart-wrenching paranormal romance that will touch your soul. I'd give 10 stars if I could. A MUST READ.

    Brax isn't human and his job is corrupting and collecting souls. Four centuries of collecting and he's one soul from becoming a crowned prince of hell. Maggie Westbrook is the one soul he needs but once he meets her something changes in him. This book captivated me and the good vs evil intrigued me. The writing is perfect, the characters are interesting and that cliffhanger left me anxious to read book two Testimony of the Blessed.

    Testimony of the Damned (Emissary of the Devil Book 1) by K.G. Reuss is a New Adult, General Fantasy, Paranormal Romance. Brax isn't a human anymore. His job now is corrupting and collecting souls. Maggie Westbrook a shy, beautiful seventeen-year-old is his latest assignment and one soul away from becoming a crowned prince of hell. She'll end up turning his world upside down. A fantastic, emotional read. A wonderful start to a new series!

    While I knew when I purchased this book it was first in a series, it did not state was going to be a cliffhanger. Granted it also didn't say was a standalone, which I prefer. That being said I did enjoy the storyline and the characters are very likeable. I will purchase next book to see how Brax and Maggie are (hopefully) brought together.

    Wow this was intense! KG Reuss sure knows how to write! My emotions were all over the place. I actually cried! This book is about a demon, Brax, who isn't looking for redemption, but he sure gets it. There are some heavy and dark themes, he does horrible things, but they make his rise so much better. Maggie is a young girl who is abused by her stepfather and she has no idea she is part angel. These two fall in love, but they have so many things working against them. I kept thinking there is no way Brax can get out of his deal with the devil, there is no way for them to be together long term. I hope I'm wrong There is action, despair, heartache, and so much love! I did not see that twist with Eliza being who she was before Brax was a demon. I can't wait to see what happens! The cliffhanger is a biggy so beware. It's sooo good!

Her mom is a drunk and her stepfather beats both Maggie and her mom. Maggie has a goal. To get good grades, earn a scholarship, and get out of her situation. In spite of her circumstances Maggie is beautiful, loving, and kind. Through Maggie’s love Brax starts changing. He is getting a heart. But other supernatural beings want Maggie. Another demon wants to corrupt her and a Nephilim has been watching over her for quite a while. Who will claim Maggie’s soul? And can Maggie to save Brax? I loved Maggie and grew to love Brax. He was becoming caring and more human the more he was with Maggie. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review

She's captivating to him. Will he bring her soul to devil? What had happen in his past? Was every sin unforgiveable?
